I'm not really sure, but it wouldn't hurt to try. I can't think of anything else that would do it.

I ended up using an SOS pad on my exaust. You can also use baking soda and water on a rag.

No SOS IMO. Eagle One "Never-Dull" should handle it. Use the directions on the back o' the can. Pep boys or the like should carry it. Hit it once a month and youll be cool for ever.
